Tottenham Hotspur face their first significant test of the 24/25 Premier League season today with a trip to St. James' Park to take on Newcastle United. Spurs have struggled at this ground in recent years, losing their last two matches and managing to secure only 7 out of a possible 15 points over the past five seasons. Meanwhile, the Magpies will be eager to make a statement after a somewhat disappointing start to their season, particularly with their difficulties in finding the back of the net.
Spurs, however, come into this match on the back of a goal-fest against Everton. But with all their natural strikers sidelined due to injuries—Dominic Solanke, Richarlison, and Will Lankshear among them—Tottenham might find it challenging to maintain that scoring momentum. This could force Son Heung-min or Dejan Kulusevski to step up and lead the attack.
The hope is that this revamped Spurs side can rise to the occasion against a tough opponent in one of the Premier League's most intimidating venues.
